Package: procps
Version: 2:4.0.4-5
Severity: normal
Hey.
procps used to contain the DPKG conffile:
/etc/sysctl.conf
and additionally created:
/etc/sysctl.d/99-sysctl.conf
Since this version, the former is no longer a conffile but not
properly cleaned up on legacy installations:
$ dpkg-query --showformat='${Package}\n${Conffiles}\n' --show | awk '/^[^
]/{pkg=$1}/ obsolete$/{print pkg,$0}' | cut -d ' ' -f 1-3 | column -t
procps /etc/sysctl.conf
The symlink will probably remain leftover, too.
Cheers,
Chris.
